Koenigsegg Jesko - First Look (In Person)

The Koenigsegg Jesko is a limited production mid-engine sports car produced by Swedish automobile manufacturer Koenigsegg. Introduced at the 2019 Geneva Motor Show, the car succeeds the Agera. The name Jesko is a tribute to the founder's father, Jesko von Koenigsegg.

The Jesko is primarily built as a high-performance track car, with focus on high aerodynamic downforce and more precise handling. Koenigsegg's other current production model, the Regera, is designed as a grand touring-oriented offering.

The engine is a development of the 5.0-litre twin-turbocharged V8 engine used in the Agera. It has four valves per cylinder each with a bore and stroke of 92 mm × 95.25 mm (3.62 by 3.75 inches) and a compression ratio of 8.6:1. The engine has a power output of 1,280 PS (941 kW; 1,262 hp) on normal gasoline and has a power output of 1,600 PS (1,177 kW; 1,578 hp) and 1,573 N⋅m (1,160 lb⋅ft) of torque at 5,100 rpm on E85 biofuel.

Changes from the Agera's engine include the use of a new 180-degree flat-plane crankshaft that saves 5 kg (11 lb) and pushes the redline from 8,250 rpm to 8,500 rpm. The Jesko also utilizes active rubber mounts from the Regera that reduce engine vibrations in the cabin. The two large turbochargers are equipped with a 20-litre tank made from carbon fibre, coupled with an electric compressor which feeds air to the turbochargers at a pressure of 20 bar (290 psi) in order to reduce turbo lag. The engine has pressure sensors for each cylinder in order to achieve real time cylinder monitoring for the multipoint fuel injection system.

The Jesko is equipped with a large carbon fibre front splitter at the front and a boomerang shaped wing at the rear generating 800 kg (1,764 lb) of downforce at 249 km/h (155 mph), 1,000 kg (2,205 lb) at 275 km/h (171 mph) and 1,700 kg (3,748 lb) at its top speed which is yet to be revealed. The low drag variant of the car, which is yet to be introduced, is claimed to have a top speed in excess of 483 km/h (300 mph) in the right conditions by the manufacturer.
